Connected Self Forcing: Beyond Local Learning in Video Autoregression

The paper introduces Connected Self Forcing, a training framework that reconnects gradient paths across autoregressive video chunks to improve long‑horizon visual quality and temporal consistency. It allows feedback from later predictions to influence earlier context generation, using shortcut gradient replay to keep memory usage manageable. The method is combined with distribution‑matching distillation and shows experimental gains without altering the inference procedure.

Relax Forcing: Relaxed KV-Memory for Consistent Long Video Generation

The paper introduces Relax Forcing, a training‑free memory mechanism for autoregressive video diffusion that structures temporal context into Sink, Tail, and History frames. By selecting History frames with a relaxation criterion, the method reduces error accumulation and attention overhead while preserving motion dynamics. Experiments on VBench‑Long demonstrate that this structured memory improves long‑video generation quality over existing baselines.
